Description

"Maritime salvage is an integral part of the safety of Australia's mariners and the maritime transport industry. This report follows 'Ship Safe', and 'Ships of Shame' in a series of reports that the committee has carried out with the safety and efficiency of Australia's maritime transport sector in mind...This report focuses on Australia's salvage capability; a capability that Australia must have in order to safeguard its national security, economic and environmental wellbeing. The Committee has made recommendations in this report relating to the assessment of strategic placement of salvage tugs, the revenue needed to support salvage capability, maintaining salvage standards, the development of a national salvage plan and the provision of salvage related training." -- p. [v].
